Why Our High Jump Equipment is Right for Your Facility
In the high jump, the difference between a record-breaking clearance and a missed attempt often comes down to the reliability of your equipment. For athletic directors and coaches, outfitting a jump sector requires gear that balances athlete safety with strict regulatory compliance. Our 2026 collection focuses on institutional-grade durability, offering everything from heavy-duty steel standards to elite aluminum telescoping systems. We prioritize precision engineering, ensuring that your standards remain perfectly level and your landing systems provide consistent, shock-absorbing protection for thousands of repetitions.
Top-Tier Standards, Runways & Safety Gear
We stock a comprehensive range of high jump equipment to ensure your program has the exact tools needed for both training and official competition.
- Professional High Jump Standards: We carry the industry's most trusted names, including UCS, Blazer, and our 700 Essentials line. Whether you need the eye-level readouts of the UCS Grand Prix standards or the rugged, powder-coated steel of the Blazer Collegiate models, our standards meet or exceed all NFHS and NCAA specifications.
- Landing Systems & Pit Protection: Protecting your investment is as important as protecting your athletes. We offer high-density foam landing systems paired with Blazer weather covers and aluminum pit platforms. These accessories prevent moisture buildup and UV damage, extending the life of your foam pits by years.
- Roll-Out Runways & Track Protectors: Maintain a pristine jumping surface with our Instant Roll-Out Runways. Perfect for indoor practice in school hallways or protecting expensive turf on the sidelines, these rubberized runways provide excellent traction and shock absorption. We also offer weighted track protectors to prevent cleat damage in high-traffic areas.
- Practice Aids & Accessories: Take the "sting" out of learning the Fosbury Flop with our Elastic Practice Crossbars. These fluorescent orange cords feature black foam sections for high visibility and allow novice jumpers to strike the "bar" without fear of injury or equipment breakage.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the official size for a high school high jump pit?
According to NFHS regulations, the landing system should be at least 16' wide by 8' deep. For collegiate (NCAA) and international competition, the minimum size increases to 19' 8" wide by 13' 1" deep. Morley Athletic offers landing systems and individual modules to meet all of these requirements.
2. Why should our team use an elastic "practice" crossbar?
Elastic bars are an essential training tool because they don't break when hit and don't fall off the standards. This allows athletes to take significantly more reps in a shorter amount of time while protecting novice jumpers from the "sting" of landing on a rigid fiberglass bar.
3. Do the high jump standards include a crossbar?
Generally, high jump standards are sold as a pair of uprights. Crossbars (fiberglass or elastic) are typically sold separately to allow you to choose the specific competition or practice model that fits your needs.
4. How do I prevent my standards from blowing over in high winds?
Our competition standards, like the UCS and Blazer Collegiate models, feature heavy steel rollaway bases with integrated leveling screws. For added stability in extremely windy conditions, many coaches utilize sandbags specifically designed for standards to ensure a perfectly vertical setup throughout the meet.
5. Are your roll-out runways suitable for spikes?
Yes. Our Instant Roll-Out Runways are manufactured in 10mm and 12mm thicknesses from recycled rubber. They are engineered to provide a non-slip, durable surface that can withstand standard track spikes, making them ideal for both indoor halls and outdoor turf protection.
6. Do you accept school purchase orders for track equipment?
Absolutely. Morley Athletic has worked directly with schools and universities for nearly a century. We happily accept school purchase orders. Athletic directors and track coaches can easily submit a formal PO to purchase landing systems, standards, runways, and crossbars for their entire program.
Do you need help calculating the shipping freight for a full landing system, or are you just looking to refresh your standards and crossbars for the upcoming season?
